    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    LOL….of course….my first car was a 1955 Ford. I learned how to work on cars….you know Fix Or Repair Daily! Simple days with mechanical stuff….learned a lot. Now….you have to have a degree in computer science and analyzing equipment to diagnose the issues…just saying!

    Yes they are sensitive. Lots of “electronic gadgets”. It’s certainly a learning process. I’m still trying to figure out why the outside keypad will not light up a function. I’ve gone down all the “rabbit holes” that may be the issue. Have yet to find the source of problem. Not that I would...

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    Thanks. The remote start began working after I replaced the battery on the Expedition. Even though the battery tested “OK” at the shop, it showed low amps so I replaced. That said, I will remember your advice for future reference, you never know when these different technologies on vehicles will...

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    Not dumb at all. When I replaced the battery the connectors were cleaned with a wire cleaner and of course the new battery terminals were new but the technician also roughed them up with brush just to be sure of good contact.

    That’s great info. I’ll be aware in the future if my remote start “fails” again to check codes and try the battery disconnect.

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    WEIRD….took a relatively long road trip 600+ miles. On a whim the day after the trip I tried the remote start with the fob…..it worked….started right up! What the fix was I have no clue…except maybe the new batteries, even though it didn’t work the day I put them on…..but I’ll take it! Thanks to...

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    I now have a new battery on the Expedition and in both fobs. The previous battery when tested under a load showed to be good n the testing computer at the shop. The only “weakness” was the CCA was 778 instead of 850. Since the battery was over 3 years old, I just got a new one. However, so far...

    Ok, I have Forscan on my laptop now. Any suggestions on which connection device I should get? Prices are all over the place from $15 to expensive….and many look exactly alike except for the price!

    Regarding Forscan, I have a scanner that I purchased this year for another one of my cars. It had usb capabilities to get updates on software. It said that it could be used on Ford too. Is there any reason I need to buy a Forscan?

    remote start - works on ford pass but keyfob doesn't

    Ok, I’m confused! Go figure! But if the remote start works with Ford Pass …..Why would it need a reset? It seems to me the remote start module is working. Yes…no?

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    I decided to try something with the fob. I started the engine with Ford Pass app, then I hit the start engine button once on the fob, like instructions say to turn off engine….and that worked. So the fob communicated with the system. And yet it will not start engine!

    I do have a second fob. Everything works on it except remote start, just like the first fob.

    Update….. I got the Ford Pass app setup! The app WILL remote start. But key fob still will not!

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    Excellent idea. I’ll take truck to shop and get battery tested. I had no idea different options would just shut because of battery, even though the battery was strong enough to turn over starter and start engine.

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    Ok, I did a Master Reset of the system. Went into vehicle and checked the box for remote start. Turned off the engine, got out. Clicked lock button twice got only one horn honk. Hit remote start button twice. The truck did not start! Any suggestion now?

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    I just updated the Sync 3 to latest version. I’ve not tried to start with Pass. Good idea. I didn’t know you had to hit lock twice! I’ll have to check that! The hood switch on my vehicle is apparently in the latch, it’s not like what’s shown mounted on inside of fender like video shows. I guess...

    Yes, I checked the remote start box in the system. I left that step out in my tale of what I’ve tried. Thanks for responding.

    2019 Limited Remote Start Not Working

    I have watched all of the YouTube videos that address the ”fixes”! Followed each one. Battery in truck is good, battery in fob is good. Every function on fob works except start. No engine light, did a scan with OBD II no problems to clear. No doors, hood or rear hatch open. Tried the hold start...
